GameSpot's Major League Eating: The Game Hands-On

Little known fact: The people who compete on the Major League Eating circuit often refer to themselves as "athletes." Now, you might not think that someone who stuffs his or her face for a living would qualify on the same level as a LeBron James or LaDanian Tomlinson, but if you extend the definition of athlete, you might see their point. After all, these are people who manage to regularly pull off extremely difficult physical feats (that is, pounding hot dogs by the pound in two minutes without throwing up), all in a competitive environment. The upcoming WiiWare game, Major League Eating: The Game, looks to bring the world of competitive eating -- and its athletes -- to video game form, and GameSpot had a chance to try the game out for themselves during the recent Nintendo Games Summit in San Francisco.
